Authorities in Twin Falls, Idaho, confirm that multiple people died and others sustained injuries during a shooting at an In-N-Out restaurant on Saturday afternoon. The location, which had only been open for one week, became the site of a violent incident that triggered a citywide response and shelter-in-place orders.
Police officials report that the shooter is dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound. While the area was cordoned off for investigation, the Twin Falls Police Department later lifted the shelter-in-place directive, stating that the threat to the community is no longer active.
Local law enforcement confirmed the scene occurred on the north side of Twin Falls, a busy commercial district serving both residents and travelers. Authorities are now working to identify the shooter and investigate any other individuals who may have been involved in the situation.
Officials have cautioned the public to rely only on official reports rather than social media updates, noting that misinformation spread quickly throughout the afternoon. While the investigation remains ongoing, leaders in Idaho have expressed their support for the first responders who arrived on the scene.
